My wifi toggle is grayed out and my bluetooth wont turn on. Is this what I need to follow to get it working? I saw there was another part for wifi and bluetooth in the store.
Hello. I also have this problem on my phone. Sometimes, for no reason, the IPhone reboots and the WIFI and Bluetooth are no longer grayed out and everything works normally. Then the phone reboots for no reason, and WIFI and Bluetooth are grayed out again. The Iphone has IOS 12.5.7.
Bonjour. J'ai aussi ce problème sur mon téléphone. Il arrive que sans raison l'IPhone redémarre et le WIFI et le Bluetooth n'est plus grisé et tout fonctionne normalement. Et puis le téléphone redémarre de nouveau sans raison, et le WIFI et le Bluetooth est de nouveau grisé. L'Iphone à l'IOS 12.5.7.

Is it possible to swap wifi/bluetooth antenna from my old iphone 5 to iphone 6 plus?
No. iPhone parts are not interchangeable.

I notice that there are people who believe that this is the celular antenna but is not. This is the Wi-Fi antenna.
